The evil Elvin Atombender returns in this modernized version of Epyx's original game. Elvin has assembled a crack team of robots within his high-security tower - the only way to stop him unleashing them is to destroy them first.

Gameplay is puzzle-oriented as before, although the levels are now scrolling, and as such much larger than before. Each one contains objects to pick up to enable you to take on the level's final puzzle of putting them together in sliding-block form. There are lots of bonus games, ranging from a Simon title to standard shoot 'em ups.

A bonus for old-timers is provided in the form of a near-perfect remake of the C64 original.

__________________________________________________

IMPOSSIBLE MISSION 2025 is the last installment in the Impossible Mission games trilogy, which also contained IMPOSSIBLE MISSION (no standalone release on Amiga) and IMPOSSIBLE MISSION II.

IMPOSSIBLE MISSION 2025 (CD32) is an enhanced update of the classic 8-bit platform puzzler IMPOSSIBLE MISSION, originally released in 1984 by Epyx for the C64. 

Set in the future (the year 2025, to be precise!), IMPOSSIBLE MISSION 2025 players can assume the role of one of three characters (the original secret agent 4125 and two new characters, a female gymnast and an android), and the corridor layout of different single screen rooms in the original have been abandoned in favour of 15 large, multidirectional scrolling levels. Additionally, IMPOSSIBLE MISSION 2025 (CD32) contains further enhancements over the IMPOSSIBLE MISSION (OCS/ECS) and (AGA) disk versions in the form of game/level intro sequences, CD quality sound, faster gameplay, and an endgame combat sequence involving 3D rendered graphics. 

IMPOSSIBLE MISSION 2025 (AGA) also includes a bonus pixel-for-pixel remake of Epyx's classic C64 platform puzzler IMPOSSIBLE MISSION (including the excellent digitised speech of the game's evil protagonist Professor Elvin Atombender), which can be accessed from the game's titlescreen menu.

IMPOSSIBLE MISSION (classic remake demo) appeared on Amiga Power coverdisk 40a (Issue 80, Aug 94), which is available for download HERE [Source: Amiga Magazine Rack (AMR)].
